Swordcrossed

Brimming with steamy romance, rougeish charm and intrigue, Swordcrossed is a dazzling queer fantasy from the internationally bestselling author of The Last Binding trilogy. `This is fantasy romance at its very best` - Grace D. Li, author of Portrait of a Thief Low stakes. High heat. Sharp steel . . . Mattinesh Jay, heir to his family`s struggling business, needs his arranged marriage to go off without a hitch. But if he`s to successfully restore his house`s fortunes, Matti must first hire a swordsman to defend him against any sword-challenges at the altar. Unfortunately, the only duellist he can afford is part-time con artist and full-time charming menace Luca Piere. All Luca wants to do is make some easy money and forget the crime he committed in his home town. He didn`t plan on being blackmailed into giving sword lessons to a chronically responsible - and inconveniently handsome - wool-merchant like Matti. However, neither Matti`s business troubles nor Luca himself are quite what they seem. As secrets threaten to drive a blade through their growing alliance, both Matti and Luca will have to answer the question: how many lies are you prepared to strip away when the truth could mean losing everything you want?
